Constructing chiral supramolecular assembly and exploring the underlying mechanism are of great significance in promoting the development of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)-active materials. Herein, we report a solvation-mediated self-assembly from single-crystals to helical nanofibers based on the first protic acyclic (methoxy)(amino)carbenes (pAMACs) Au -enantiomers driven by a synergetic aurophilic interactions and H-bonds. Their aggregation-dependent thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties with high quantum yields (Φ ) up to 95 % were proved to be attributed to packing modes of Au⋅⋅⋅Au dimers with π-stacking or one-dimensional extended Au⋅⋅⋅Au chains. Via drop-casting method, supramolecular P- or M-helices were prepared. Detailed studies on the helices demonstrate that formations of extended helical Au⋅⋅⋅Au molecular chains amplify supramolecular chirality, leading to strong CPL with high dissymmetry factor (|g |=0.030, Φ =67 %) and high CPL brightness (B ) of 4.87×10 . Our findings bring new insights into the fabrication of helical structures to improve CPL performance by modifying aurophilic interactions.
构建手性超分子组装体并探索其潜在机制对于促进圆偏振发光(CPL)活性材料的发展具有重要意义。在此,我们报道了一种基于首个质子型非环状(甲氧基)(氨基)卡宾(pAMACs)金对映体,通过协同的金亲金相互作用和氢键驱动,从单晶到螺旋纳米纤维的溶剂化介导自组装。它们具有聚集依赖性热激活延迟荧光性质,量子产率(Φ)高达95%,这被证明归因于具有π堆积的Au⋅⋅⋅Au二聚体或一维延伸的Au⋅⋅⋅Au链的堆积模式。通过滴铸法制备了超分子P-螺旋或M-螺旋。对螺旋的详细研究表明,延伸的螺旋Au⋅⋅⋅Au分子链的形成放大了超分子手性,导致具有高不对称因子(|g| = 0.030,Φ = 67%)和4.87×10的高CPL亮度(B)的强CPL。我们的发现为通过修饰金亲金相互作用来制造螺旋结构以改善CPL性能带来了新的见解。
